Programmable Automatic
Door Locks
Your vehicle is programmed so that, when the doors are
closed, the ignition is on, and the shift lever is moved
out of PARK (P), all the doors will lock. The doors
will unlock every time you stop the vehicle and move
the shift lever into PARK (P).
If someone needs to get out while your vehicle is not
in PARK (P), have the person use the manual lock knob
or power door lock switch. When the door is closed
again, it will not lock automatically. Use the manual
lock knob or power door lock switch to lock the door.
With the vehicle in PARK (P) and the ignition on,
the door locks can be programmed through prompts
displayed on the Driver Information Center (DIC).
These prompts allow the driver to choose various lock
and unlock settings. For programming information,
see DIC Vehicle Customization on page 3-86.

from opening the rear doors from the inside.
The rear door security locks are located on the inside
edge of each rear door. You must open the rear doors to

one of the following:
To use these locks, do the following:
1. Turn the knob to the vertical position to engage
the lock.
2. Close the door.
3. Do the same for the other rear door.
